Nitro XLR 23KW

I'm really considering the xlr 23kw, anyone on here have one or know someone who has one? I'll be going to my dealer this weekend to see if my 2016 rzr xp4 will fit. Looking for feedback on this model.

Thanks!

I have one being built now!!! Love this model..
Garage is 14 feet long, depending on if it has the entertainment unit on the right side or not (whole wall unit vs top shelves only) it is plenty wide for a RZR (maybe not wide track).

The one I'm looking at doesn't have the cabinets on right passenger side. Going to test fit tomorrow, I'll take some pics

Is it a 2017? When I ordered mine they told me the 2017's (not late model 2016's marked as '17's) do not have the entertainment center as it cut into the parking width...

Take lots of pics!!! I'm dying to get mine!

It's marked at a 2017 but I know they had it last fall. I will take tons of pictures. I know it's going to be a tight fit with a 4 seat rzr.

Mine is tentatively going to be done at Forest River on the 17th of this month. We'll see how late it is....

That's great news.... I have a 2 seat right now but plan on buying a 4 seat in the next few years and now I know it will fit!

OP did you buy this unit? I'm trying to be patient and wait.... Offline date got pushed to the 27th and we'll see if it makes that or not.

Hey I ended up buying the Coachmen Adrenaline 25 QB. Basically the same thing but more height for the rzr to pull in. Kind of wish I had that zero g door though.

Can anyone tell me, on the 2017 Nitro 23kw does it have a atwood yoke latch coupler or a trigger latch, I'm picking mine up in 2 weeks and I am trying to buy a coupler lock for it. Thanks!

Mine gets here Tuesday but it has the Zero G Ramp door by MORryde.... uses trailer key. Mine is a 2018, but the true '17's should have it as well.... It was a standard feature according to Forest River's site.

I'm Sorry I'm new to all this but what exactly do you mean by standard feature? I know the coupler comes standard but I don't know what kind of coupler they are using.

On the forest river webpage it lists the standard features of every trailer. MORryde doors became standard in the 2017+ year for the xlr nitro series trailers....

Not yet. Did first camping trip already though, just didn't take the toys. Everything works and there are only a few minor things that need correcting.

What did you find that needed to be corrected? I ended up with an Adrenaline and found some minor things too. Caulking, outside speakers, minor plumbing leak.

Sliding door was damaged in transit, one of the skirt supports on the outside was never hooked up so the skirt lost some screws and is loose, they installed the black water rinse check valve backwards so it doesn't work.
